mxz,
PROS:
Easy on gas
Light for ditchbangin and when i get stuck
Always starts right up
Realiable as hell
Good Rear suspension
for a 380 will still do around 120 on the lake
CONS:
its a 380, was good power couple years ago but is now to underpowered for me
Fan cooled get warm easier
No tach
Front suspension blows
It is a good sled it has done alot of riding, Probly stepping up to a 600 soon but still a geat machine for getin around

What I love about my sled is mainly the handling....the power doesn't hurt matters either.
What I hate...the haters!

I love the pro x, not 1 thing I hate about it. It perform flawless.
 6 I have a love/hate relationship with the 440 xcr. I love the suspension and handling on it. I hate the clutching, it can be finiky at time. Even with the tempaflo. It has a mind of it's own

I like about everything about my sled. Its got good power and handerls good in the powder and I like how it looks.
I dont like how it handels on trails though. It pushed like crazy and darts like he!!. It also pisses me off that the paint on the pan always chips but thats a whole other story.

Quote originally posted by Cooked
Everybody is probably gonna laugh, but I like mine. It has enough power for me around here. We usually have 8-10 people in our group which slows things down a bit anyways. Probably if I was up north it would be nice to gat across the lake quicker. Its easy to start, very reliable, and light as could be. Get home from riding all weekend and still have the energy to toss it around in the shed. About the only thing that would be nice is a wider stance. You gotta get out of the throttle in almost every corner to almost a stop, just to keep it from rolling. But it gets me around and have a blast doing it
Love it, I have a 98 PhazerII as my second sled... when there isn't enough snow for my Nytro I ride it... It is always fun and always starts 3rd pull... Glad to see someone still enjoys these sleds..

^^^Does it matter if it's covered up with snow ;)
-To ride or not to ride, what a stupid question!
-You should never judge a guy until you have walked a mile in his shoes, then you are a mile away and have his shoes
-Ice, snow, or grass, I'll still kick your ass.
